This page will one day be populated with instructions to flash with this firmware - if anyone ACTUALLY wants people to test it out.

Possibly related?

Work has began and is under construction by olofolleola4.

The reason (as of 2020-Mar-15) why LG/Asus BD ODDs needs to be flashed into Asus BW-16D1HT 3.02 (DE - Downgrade Enable) (most probably ODDs using PCB: JB8 2015.05.08) is because that firmware supports Lead-in and the OpCode 0xf1[1][2] (normally used by Plextors to read the EEPROM, but in the case with Asus BW-16D1HT 3.02, it reads the cache) to read 1 sector[3] of Lead-out through cache.

Requirements:

  • Microsoft Windows or GNU/Linux(-libre)
  • SATA controller in IDE mode(?) or USB to SATA Controller (olofolleola4 tested this with JMicron JM20337)
  • A stable power source for both the ODD and computer.

Some notes before you begin:

  • After each file have been sucessfully flashed, it's a good idea to power cycle the ODD, either by disconnecting the SATA Power cable or by restarting the computer.
  • Specific instruction for GNU/Linux(-libre):

sudo wine ASUS_ODD_FW_Changer_-_FIRMWARE.exe

ODDs

  • Asus BW-16D1HT with firmware 3.00 --> 3.10:

First flash 3.10MK (SHA1: 70762635c4bbd324c4f2095dc336acb3b0764919), then flash ASUS BW-16D1HT 3.02 (DE) (SHA1: 4130578520c024218a1d99f86311525a05bccb60).

  • LG (HL-DT-ST) WH14NS40 (SVC CODE: NS50) 1.02:

First flash 3.10MK (SHA1: 70762635c4bbd324c4f2095dc336acb3b0764919), then flash ASUS BW-16D1HT 3.02 (DE) (SHA1: 4130578520c024218a1d99f86311525a05bccb60).

To-Do:

  • Provide compressed archive with all the ASUS_ODD_FW_Changer files in the near future!
